Testimony - Audrey Naulleau

In this video, delve into the field of agricultural research with a researcher from CIRAD, an agricultural development institute. She explores the processes aimed at designing agroecological production systems to address the challenges of climate change. The central question of her research is how agroecology can help producers adapt to climate disruptions.
Her initial area of study is Tunisia, where territorial consultation projects are underway to reduce agriculture's vulnerability to climate change. At the heart of these consultations, field schools are established, where volunteer farmers experiment with innovations and discuss them within a broader community group. They seek solutions to environmental challenges such as water resource scarcity and soil erosion, adapting them to future climates.
The researcher emphasizes the necessary commitment to working closely with agricultural development stakeholders, as well as the importance of conviviality in these projects. She also underscores the acquisition of essential skills because this training provides a range of valuable tools and know-how for all involved parties.
